>>224176020>>224176055Yeah how come there is no MongolKino yet? Or is there and I just missed it?
They do not make them like they used to.>>224176218There is one where John Wayne plays Genghis. The Conqueror from the 1950s.Its....... uh....... interesting. They filmed it near a nuclear testing site in the american southwest desert or something. Like half the cast and crew died of cancer because of having been in and having worked on this piece of shit. The guy who plays Bonds Turkish sidekick in From Russia With Love was also in it and died from cancer from having been in The Conqueror. John Wayne himself died of cancer obviously for having been in this shitfest.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHt0Pb8rkXUJohn Wayne doing yellowface is one of the things of all time ngl.
>>224176020I stopped reading at the part where he raises another man's child.
>>224176020>He accepts the boy out of love for his wifecuck>he shares war spoils equally and promotes based on merit whereas Jamukha only promotes based on Noble bloodwoke
>>224176218Watch Mongol starring Tadanobu Asano. It's kino
>>224177334He seems pretty chill and liberal, he even offers to let his noble rival Jamukha live instead of killing him, but he crashes about honor and demands to be executed.
A long time ago I read a book my father had on a WWI German general named Paul von-Lettow Vorbeck and wished that someone would make a movie about his efforts in WWI. Though don't ask me what he did as my memory of that book has faded; it's a wonder I even remember his name.
My favorite depiction of mongols I ever seen was in a manga
>>224177389Then he and his descendants killed 40 million people.Yeah. Chill guy.
their exists no history outside of American history
>>224176020>named Genghis Khan>becomes KhanWho writes this shit?

>>224177249Oh what, NOW you're all for abortion?! You're disgusting
>>224176020>simple villager >town gets raided by blood thirsty backwards savages >gets kidnapped along with her baby>Indians kill baby because it cried>she waits for Indian tribe to fall asleep and kills them with an ax>also scalps them for proof>makes her way all the way back to her village
>>224179605How would Netflix adapt this? Make her a man and have the Indians take the children because he's abusing them?
>>224179528No, I've been for abortion since your conception.
>>224176020reading a washington biography and hes pretty up there. goes from a nobody to defeating the british empire in what looked like a hopeless war the whole time until the end and then founded the most powerful nation on earth and became its first lead and all the great menTM during that time can do anything but gush about how amazing he was. never even had an education or lead an actual powerful military, imagine if he had both
>>224176055>>224176020This sounds like gibberish.
>>224176218This used to be available entirely on YouTube with English subtitles. Pretty accurate and surprisingly high production values. Very kino, I assure you
>>224179605Just read that the park this statue is in bitched out and removes the axe Lame and gay
>>224176020His life, death, and work made for a great film
>>224176020
>>224180074>in what looked like a hopeless war>supported by French navyYeah sure.
KAAAAAAAAAAHN!!
mfw this thread
>>224176218Marco Polo isn't half bad. Nice mongol titties in it too
>>224176055>>He only asks for an honorable bloodless deathis this the one that he has his back broken?
>>224181498goddamn mongorians takin down my shitty warr
>>224176020Diversity done right
>>224176020This could be interesting but I doubt any western studio would invest
>>224176020Who should play her? Cara Delevigne or Kristen Stewart? I think Kristen is too short so Cara wins this time. Inb4 Cara can't act, she just need to be herself
>>224177696Killing 40 million people makes the world a lot more chill, yeah.
>>224176020sounds like a load of horseshit
>>224177696it was all propaganda, he barely killed anyone
>>224176020Went to college up the street from an old teaching post for the world's foremost Mongoliaboo, he gave a guest talk in our history course on empire once. I asked one question, don't really remember any details but it may have had to do with traversing the dead zone littered with soviet/chinese equipment and what that felt like. Anyway human beings are all pieces of shit and no in-group has any right to feel good about its own strongman.
I just realized they named TEMU after this guy
Ada Lovelace is a hollywood beauty who was a genius. Easy award flick.
>>224182549Dangerously based. The husband should have just banged both. Annie Clark who sapphicly seduced kstew and dj cara both in real life.
>>224180961Crazy that pewdepie introduced him to millions of people during his book video.
>>224181293>France literally ends its monarchy going to bankrupt to support Washington Certified kino.
>>224179510Cool guy. Gerard butler did a similar film called machine gun preacher.
>>224181293they didnt have french support at the start of the war and were never sure if they were going to get it or when or how. even when they got support the first fleet they sent over did jack shit and then sailed away
>>224176020>>224176055>>224176218A pretty good movie about those exact events. I highly recommend it.
do you guys ever get bogged down by how much shit in history may or may not be just completely made up horseshit? i find myself not wanting to get into history that much, especially when it pertains to specific people and their life events, because they were so long ago that no doubt some shit has either been lost in translation over the years, heavily embellished or just made the fuck up. history is the ultimate 'dude trust us' knowledge out there, we have to just take the word of some asians that wrote about ghengis khan over 500 years ago
>>224183379It mostly is.Since none of it can be empirically proven you have to piece it together from sources that might or might not be correct.Almost everything written down by a human is 100% biased with almost all of it being funded by some bigwig of the time to increase their claim to power.
Charles II of England had a kino escape followed by a kino revenge that ended with Cromwell's head on a spike.
